Any idea where replacement factory spring hose clips can be found to replace the originals?. I have a special tool used for the spring clips which makes using these very easy.

If you're looking for the factory radiator hose clips, then we can special order those for you. Give one of our sales reps a call at 888 – 280 – 7799 and they can look those up for you. The factory clips are interesting. I originally thought they were a cheap solution to the older style clamps, but I was recently educated on the fact that because they are spring-loaded they apply a uniform pressure across the circumference of the hose no matter what temperature the hose gets. In other words they apply uniform pressure under almost all varying conditions. I still like to use the older style clamps, but these also work just as well
